God's Kind of Poetry

He writes His poems in the sun…
Streaming through the trees at dawn.
He pens a beautiful stanza…
When the deer takes graceful flight.
He rhymes the words that we feel…
With more than a sing-song appeal.
He whispers affection and compassion…
Through the words that bring us acceptance.

God’s kind of poetry is more than words and phrases.
He murmurs his greatest feelings through intimacies…
Appealing to our hearts and that part of our souls…
That will reach out with vulnerabilities, entreating…
Needing the ultimate peace, the dream, the love…
Love that is everything – love that is unconditional.

He writes His poems in the rain…
That brings fresh air to all that it cleans.
He pens His greatest phrases….
In the songs of birds who sing delight.
He rhymes His words together so sweetly…
That we feel the warmth within.
He whispers a deep and meaningful expression…
Through the words that tell us we are loved.

God’s kind of poetry is more than rhymes and stanzas.
He sighs out a beautiful sentence of compassion, 
A deeply abiding affection that reminds us…
His love is deeper than we can understand.
He cares more than we can comprehend.
He is wiser than the wisdom we try to grasp.
And His love is all that we will ever need to live…
A life that is filled with every hope, faith and love….
All the joys sent from God above.

It's true. The Father of heaven, the Mother of nature, God's Spirit of love is the greatest poet, artist, musician. I liked this, a lot.

God is the greatest poet, a master painter, a grand story-teller. Hindu scripture tells: ? ?????? ???? ?????? ?????? ???? ??????????????????? ? ??????????? ????????? ??????????? ? ?? ???????????????? ????????? ? 3 ? We call on Thee, Lord of the hosts, the poet of poets, the most famous of all; the Supreme king of spiritual knowledge, 0 Lord of spiritual wisdom. Listen to us with thy graces and reside in the place of sacrifice. Love Regina. Good poem indeed.
